Ghana defender Afful tied down to new contract at Columbus Crew

Ghana international Harrison Afful has extended his stay with Major League Soccer (MLS) side Columbus Crew beyond the 2019 season.

Out of contract at the end of this year, the full-back was a conspicuous absentee from the 2020 roster announced last week, with the club revealing ongoing talks for a renewal.

This term, he made 22 MLS appearances for The Crew, starting in each of those games.
